My sweet bumblebee,

I was thrilled to see how happy you are about this! You had picked me up and twirled me around in your arms before dropping down to your knees and kissing my belly. Thank you for comforting me every morning I'm sick; I know it's not the prettiest sight. I've woken up in the middle of the night to find you composing lullabies for our little bundle of joy. I love seeing how enthusiastic you are about fatherhood. I love you, Sherlock. I am so excited for this new journey we're about to take on together; marriage and a baby.

It has been a month since we found out and you've been busy trying to make preparations for our little one even though it'll be months before it's born. I think it's best we slow down a bit and just focus on getting married next month. Our friends are so excited for us as well as your family…our family. I believe your mum's exact words were, 'A wedding AND a grandchild? I must be dreaming!' She's so happy for you. For us. Mycroft's reaction nearly shocked me…he HUGGED me. Actually hugged me and you! I think he's excited to be an uncle. I thought it was adorable when Rosie asked where the baby was and John explained that it's 'growing in Aunt Molly's tummy.' She then proceeded to hug my still-flat belly.

Thank you for bringing me lunch and ice cream. Nothing sounded good in the canteen today and I was craving nachos. I'm sorry if I interrupted anything, but you assured me it was only a three and not worth your time. Your mum called to say that she'll have everything handled as far as setting up the backyard garden for our wedding. Do you have any idea how happy I am to soon be married to you? We've come so far, my love. We grew so much together and we'll continue to grow (especially me in every sense of the word; my belly's going to be huge!)

My mum and dad used to tell me to marry my best friend, and I am doing just that. We're always there for each other and love one another unconditionally. There is nothing we wouldn't do for each other. I know you inside and out just as you know me. We understand one another like no one else. There has never been a lie told between us in all the years we've known each other. I love the way you look at me and your beautiful smile; I love being silly with you and the way we snog like teenagers. I don't have any fear about this new journey we're on; I am not afraid because I have you. You are the love of my life, Sherlock Holmes and nothing will ever change that.

I love you and our little baby bee does too.

With all my heart and soul,

Your Molly and baby xxx

p.s. get home soon, mister, I think we need to do some lovemaking tonight (and no, I promise, you won't hurt the baby).
